Took the bike out for a little spin to get the sealant all good and distributed. At first blush, the wheels feel pretty nice. Very smooth. The hub is more subdued than I'd like, though - how is a hub that quiet supposed to herald my approach to the MUPpets?

I... don't really know if this is the place to share. But some certainly knew him. Bikeforums legend Pcad was struck and killed by a car while riding yesterday.

Rest in peace.

Hi. After 4 yrs, I logged on. Was just told about PCAD by Rog (if anyone remembers him). I was pretty sad about it despite my not so good relationship with him. So while logged in I thought I'd say hello. Still riding the same bikes, will be riding my age tomorrow for my birthday (53m), then eating lots of food and likely drinking one too many IPAs.
My private practice gave up the ghost, and I'm working for the VA and loving it, (COVID aside). I got remarried in 2016 and am the dad to a teenage girl (who alternates between being the best person in the world and driving me insane). So my life is blessed.

See you in another 4 yrs. :)

No one wants that, but it's likely going to be necessary.

A month ago, we were planning to go out to LA to get my daughter ready to attend her freshman year at USC. Now I am thinking it's more likely she will be taking her classes from home. But it's still TBA.

I’ve mostly traded Oscar for a peloton. Which PCad gave me quite a hassle about.

When I started lurking here in 2016. Pcad was already scarce but he was around enough for me to get a sense of his personality. I also read about half of the first Addiction thread.

Forgive me if this seems inappropriate but speaking for all of us and Pcad; 2020 can blow me.
